Ultrasonic Device

I can not get the ultrasonic device to detect an object, (wall ect). I have the ultrasonic device connect to trigger D21 echo D22 and even tried to swapping the trigger with the echo.

The only solution is to Exit ARC, choose NOT to Save (losing other valuable changes you may have made) and then restart, where upon your control reappears. I stupidly...
